Before you begin
This form, known in Czech as "Žádost," is the official application for the Citizenship Certificate process ("Osvědčení o státním občanství").
Each Czech consulate in the U.S. covers specific states. If you’re unsure which consulate serves your area, you can check the list of consulate jurisdictions here.
For children, the applicant must be the Czech citizen parent or legal guardian who holds Czech citizenship.
Signatures must be provided during your consular appointment. If applying by mail, they must be notarized. For more information, please refer to the website of the consulate with jurisdiction over your state.
